Choosing the Right Mobile Roller Brake Tester for Your Workshop: What to Look For

A mobile roller brake tester is a crucial piece of equipment in any workshop, ensuring vehicles meet the highest safety standards. However, with so many options available, it’s important to know what features set a truly effective mobile roller brake tester apart.

Here are some key factors to consider when evaluating your options and how premium models, like those offered by Levanta, stand up to the test.

Is it Truly Mobile?

The term “mobile” can be misleading. While many roller brake testers can be moved from one place to another, a true mobile brake tester is ready to go with minimal effort and no complex assembly. You want a model that allows you to quickly reposition it within your workshop or even take it on the road without needing to break it down into multiple parts. Levanta’s offerings in this space are designed to meet these mobility demands, making them ideal for workshops that need flexibility.

One-Piece Construction Matters

One-piece construction is essential for maintaining the integrity and accuracy of a mobile brake tester. Some units on the market require assembly, which not only takes time but also leaves room for error. A robust, single-piece design ensures seamless operation and fewer headaches. Levanta’s mobile solutions are designed to reduce the risk of assembly errors, allowing workshop technicians to focus on efficient, precise testing.

Surface Treatment – Galvanised vs. Painted

Given the conditions in which mobile brake testers are used, surface treatment is crucial for durability. They are often exposed to elements like moisture, dirt, and heavy vehicle traffic. Ensuring your brake tester has a durable surface treatment, such as galvanization, is crucial to its longevity. Painted surfaces may look appealing initially but can wear down quickly under tough workshop conditions. Levanta’s equipment is designed with durability in mind, using treatments that stand up to the rigours of the workshop environment, ensuring long-lasting performance.

Power Requirements

Roller brake testers often demand significant power, especially during startup. It’s important to know the power specifications to avoid unexpected electrical upgrades or operational inefficiencies. Some testers may require dedicated circuits or higher electrical capacity, which can add significant costs. Levanta’s brake testers are engineered to be efficient without putting excessive strain on your power systems, giving you peace of mind that your workshop can continue to run smoothly without unnecessary interruptions to other equipment.

Durability of the Roller Surface

The roller surface plays a key role in the accuracy of brake testing. A well-designed surface not only simulates real road conditions but is also built to withstand constant wear from vehicle tyres. Poorly treated surfaces can expand unevenly under heat or sunlight, leading to inconsistent test results. High-quality testers, like those available through Levanta, are equipped with durable roller surfaces that maintain accuracy and performance even under heavy use.

Proven Performance in Australia and New Zealand

Workshops in Australia and New Zealand face unique conditions, from extreme weather to high operational demands. Both the BM20200 and SM18100 Mobile Roller Brake Testers from the Levanta range have been designed and tested for these environments, offering proven performance where it matters most. These machines are not only globally recognised but also tailored to the specific needs of workshops in these regions, ensuring that you’re investing in equipment that’s up to the task.

Levanta offers a comprehensive range of roller brake testers designed to meet these challenges. Beyond the BM20200 and SM18100, Levanta provides various models to suit different workshop needs, all of which can be found on their roller brake testers page.

Levanta’s roller brake testers are known for:

Advanced Technology: Incorporating the latest in brake testing technology for precise measurements.
User-Friendly Interface: Easy-to-use controls and displays for efficient operation.
Robust Construction: Built to withstand the tough conditions of Australian and New Zealand workshops.
Comprehensive Support: Backed by Levanta’s exceptional customer service and technical support.

When selecting a mobile roller brake tester, it’s important to think beyond the price tag. Factors like true mobility, robust construction, durable surface treatments, power requirements, and local performance all play a vital role in ensuring your workshop runs efficiently. Equipment from trusted brands, such as Levanta, offers the best of these features, giving you confidence that your mobile brake tester will meet the challenges of your workshop while delivering long-lasting value.

Why Use an Oil Filter Crusher? More Than Just Saving Space

In the automotive and heavy vehicle industries, efficient waste management is essential for both cost savings and environmental responsibility.

One tool that helps workshops tackle both these objectives is the oil filter crusher. But what exactly is the advantage of using a filter crusher? Is it just a way to save space in the filter bin, or are there additional benefits, such as being able to sell crushed filters as steel scrap?

Here, we break down the main advantages of using an oil filter crusher and how it can benefit your workshop.

Space-Saving Efficiency

One of the most immediate benefits of using an oil filter crusher is the space saved by compressing used filters. Oil filters, especially those from heavy vehicles, are bulky and can take up a significant amount of space in your waste bin. A filter crusher compresses these filters into a fraction of their original size, freeing up valuable storage space in your waste disposal area.

At Levanta, we offer advanced solutions like the LWS048 1500-300 Vertical Electro Hydraulic Oil Filter Crusher, which can reduce the size of large oil filters and ensure your workshop runs smoothly with less clutter and more room for other operations.

Environmental Benefits

Another key advantage is the crusher’s ability to drain residual oil from the filters. Used oil filters contain traces of oil that, if not properly handled, can pose an environmental risk. Crushing filters not only reduces their size but also removes the leftover oil, making them safer and more environmentally friendly to handle.

This is crucial for workshops aiming to meet environmental regulations and improve their waste management processes. By using an oil filter crusher, the remaining oil can be collected and safely disposed of, or even recycled, while the filter becomes non-hazardous material.

Potential to Sell Crushed Filters as Steel Scrap

Here’s where the economic benefit comes in. Once filters are crushed and free from oil, they can often be sold as steel scrap. Intact filters, on the other hand, may still be considered contaminated due to the residual oil and must be disposed of as hazardous waste, which can be costly. By crushing the filters, you not only eliminate this hazard but also open the opportunity to recycle the steel for financial gain.

This scrap metal can contribute to the recycling stream and may even generate revenue for your workshop, making the crusher an investment that can pay for itself over time.

Compliance with Waste Regulations

Many regions have strict regulations about the disposal of used oil filters. These rules often require that filters be thoroughly drained of oil before disposal. An oil filter crusher simplifies this process by draining and compressing filters in one step, ensuring your workshop stays compliant with local waste disposal regulations.

Why Choose Levanta’s Oil Filter Crushers?

At Levanta, we understand the needs of modern workshops and offer equipment like the LWS048 1500-300 Vertical Electro Hydraulic Oil Filter Crusher to help you streamline your operations. Our range of crushers is designed to make filter disposal easy, safe, and profitable, while also contributing to environmental sustainability

Whether your workshop handles light vehicles, trucks, or other heavy machinery, investing in an oil filter crusher is more than just a way to save space. It’s an opportunity to reduce waste, comply with environmental regulations, and even recoup costs through scrap metal sales.

By incorporating an oil filter crusher into your workflow, you’re not only making your workshop more efficient but also doing your part for a greener future.

Inland Petroleum – Dubbo, NSW

Inland Petroleum, a family-owned fuel distributor serving New South Wales, has proudly operated for three generations. Established in 1985, the company has grown to become a trusted partner in fuel distribution.

As their fleet grew, it became clear that relying on multiple external service providers was no longer cost-effective or efficient. The high labour rates and inefficiency of external servicing became unsustainable. To meet the operational demands of a larger fleet, Inland turned to Levanta to help establish an in-house maintenance workshop equipped with advanced tools for efficient, high-quality servicing of heavy vehicles.

The Challenge

With a rapidly growing fleet, Inland Petroleum faced challenges in maintaining efficiency, reducing costs, and minimising downtime. Managing maintenance externally was costly and didn’t allow Inland the control or speed required to keep up with fleet demands. Inland needed high-quality, durable equipment that could simplify the maintenance of large, multi-axle vehicles, enabling them to conduct preventive maintenance and quickly diagnose and repair issues.

Levanta's Solution

Levanta provided Inland Petroleum with a range of advanced equipment designed for heavy vehicle servicing, including:

Results and Benefits

Since adopting Levanta’s equipment, Inland Petroleum has experienced substantial operational improvements, including a 38% reduction in monthly repair and maintenance costs. Shifting maintenance in-house has also enabled Inland to create new jobs, adding 15 positions within their local community. The implementation of Levanta’s tools has streamlined Inland’s ability to conduct preventive maintenance, resulting in less fleet downtime and increased efficiency.

“After 14 months of using Levanta equipment, we’ve been able to measure a 38% monthly cost reduction in repair and maintenance.

Levanta has helped us achieve less downtime through getting us back to a point of doing preventative maintenance instead of reactive maintenance. Over the last 14 months, we’ve got the equipment, trucks and trailers back to a standard now where it is only preventative maintenance, unless we have a major breakdown.

This means we’ve got more equipment on the road, there’s a lot less downtime and we’re a lot more efficient in what we’re doing as a company.”

Drew McCallum, Director – Inland Petroleum

Inland Petroleum Workshop Feedback

“Here at Inland Petroleum, maintaining our vehicles to the highest industry standard is our main priority. With the Levanta Roller Brake Tester and Shaker, we can maintain our equipment to the highest level that our competitors can only aspire to.”

“One of the key features of the Levanta Roller brake tester is the single man operation. This enables us to complete a brake test on one of our longest assets with 15 axles, with only the requirement of the one bloke in under 15 minutes.”

“The main reason why we chose Levanta equipment is the range of workshop equipment they have, from standard axle stands right up to our knuckle lift. The main reason we went with a Levanta knuckle lift over traditional 4 post hoists is you don't have to worry about load distribution or split weights. Plus, we get a double combination, which lets us bring b-doubles and the truck into the workshop at once.”

"We have six of these lifts which allow us to lift the tanker off the ground and do all their fit outs easily and effectively, without being on the ground as such. The reason that we like to use the column lifts here at Inland Petroleum is when you get the trailer up to the height you want, we put our 8T axle stands underneath it, which also gives us added safety, and we can use the lifts on other projects throughout the workshop.”

“The training that we've had with this gear, it's given us a lot of confidence in doing the work without worrying about outsourcing and having the confidence that truck on the road is safe as houses, keeping everyone safe. We've had truck drivers come back saying that their trailers are tracking straight, which in turn is easier on them, less driver fatigue, gives us better tire wear, better longevity of the vehicle, less strain on the suspension components.”

“After 14 months of using Levanta equipment, we've been able to measure a 38% monthly cost reduction in repair and maintenance. Levanta has helped us achieve less downtime through getting us back to a point of doing preventative maintenance instead of reactive maintenance. Over the last 14 months, we've got the equipment, trucks and trailers back to a standard now where it is only preventative maintenance, unless we have a major breakdown. This means we've got more equipment on the road, there's a lot less downtime and we’re a lot more efficient in what we're doing as a company.”

Cornells Diesel – A 20-Year Partnership with Levanta

Since 2003, Cornells Diesel has been a trusted client of Levanta, beginning with a small workshop in Wetherill Park, NSW. Over the last 20 years, this partnership has grown and evolved, leading to multiple successful projects and a deep relationship built on trust, reliability, and Levanta’s high-quality workshop solutions.

The Early Days: Wetherill Park (2003)

In 2003, Cornells Diesel, then a small operation, purchased two 2-post hoists from Levanta for their workshop in Wetherill Park. This was the start of a partnership that would see both companies grow side by side. As Cornells Diesel expanded its operations, their demands for workshop equipment increased, and Levanta was there every step of the way.

Sunshine West Expansion (2008 -2016)

By 2008, Cornells Diesel had expanded into a new location in Sunshine West, VIC, purchasing three more hoists from Levanta. However, the growth of Cornells Diesel quickly outpaced the capacity of this workshop. In response, they turned to Levanta once again to help design and implement a full workshop fit-out for a larger facility in the same area.

Completed in 2016, this comprehensive fit-out was designed to meet Cornells Diesel’s increased operational demands. It included:

5 x 5.5-tonne in-ground cylinder lifts
1 x 8-tonne OMER Knuckle lift
Exhaust extraction system
DURA workshop furniture fit-out through the main workshop and rebuild room
Full oil delivery system with bulk storage tanks and oil management system
Compressed air system, including a 20Hp air compressor
Additional workshop equipment

Reflecting on this successful project, Devesh Miresh, CEO of Cornells Diesel, stated,

“Levanta did the full 3D drawing of the fit-out and helped us with the process of work. They did a lot of hard work to make everything run smoothly and rolled out the whole project, so it was really good!”

Looking Ahead: Future Growth

Cornells Diesel’s success and expansion didn’t stop there. Devesh Miresh continues to see Levanta as a trusted partner in his company’s future projects. Cornells Diesel has contracted Levanta for their next major project—a workshop fit-out in Brisbane. This upcoming facility will replicate the same system installed at their Sunshine West location in 2016, further expanding their national footprint.

Devesh shared his thoughts on this long-standing partnership: “We wanted to improve on processes to get work done quicker and have the workshop be more efficient, and the fuel injection repair done more efficiently. Levanta has been on the journey all the way through, and the business has been growing year by year.”

He went on to praise Levanta’s dedication to customer service: “The service was good, the after-service was good. Any issues were resolved in a timely manner, and we never got affected with business.”

A Partnership Built on Trust and Results

The relationship between Cornells Diesel and Levanta has spanned two decades, with each project reflecting Levanta’s commitment to delivering tailored, effective workshop solutions. As Devesh Miresh summarised, “It is something that was designed and constructed by Levanta in 2016—it really works, and we’ll be doing the same thing three times over.”

This ongoing collaboration highlights Levanta’s ability to support the growth of businesses like Cornells Diesel, offering long-term solutions that evolve with the needs of their clients.
